The creation of any art or entertainment media along with the ensuing production, distribution and sale involves contractual agreements and the preservation of intellectual property rights. The potential for the theft of intellectual property formats and ideas is always present. Cohen & Lombardo, P.C. has represented artists and their interests for more than two decades. Our attorneys currently represent nationally and internationally known entertainers, television, radio and media personalities, record companies, recording studios, producers, writers, artist managers, and concert promoters, as well as several "indie" entities in all matters of entertainment law and intellectual property law (copyright/trademark).

This wide experience revolves around matters of career planning, negotiation, rights of publicity, IP ownership rights, and making sure that our clients’ intellectual property and contractual rights are protected. To this end, our attorneys draft and negotiate contracts and agreements in all areas of the entertainment industry including literary publishing, film production and distribution, songwriter publishing, co-production, copyright transfer and licensing, and literary purchase agreements.

Even with proper planning, disputes may arise. Our attorneys have a track record of success in both the negotiation and litigation of these matters.
